Year: 2018
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: The soil body configuration is the most important link in the process of agricultural land remediation. It has a serious impact on the fertility of the rehabilitated land and the economic investment in remediation. Six experimental plots with different tillage layer thickness and transitional layer were constructed manually. After the completion of the plots, the common crop maize in Guanzhong area was planted, and the plant height, chlorophyll, spike diameter and spike length were measured, the yield was calculated, the growth status of maize in different plots were compared. The results showed that the yield of maize was the highest in the plot that the thickness of tillage layer was 60 cm and uesd Loamy loess as transition layer, which was the most suitable soil body configuration for the growth of maize in Guanzhong area.
